MAKING IT WARM FOR 'BNI

An eminent astronomer says the fires of the
sun are maintained by gradual cooling and
shrinkage of that body. The total heat is equal
to that which would be required to keep 476, 900
millions of millions of millions of horse pow
er.-Now, if you get any idea from that, make
the most of it!
To keep up this heat the would only have
to shrink one-hundredth per cent. smaller than it
is now in the next 2 600 years.
In about 10. 600, 900 it won't throw out heat
enough to sustain life on the earth. At this it is
calculated that it has existed already about 2O,-
100000 years.

When MOSES in the swamps grow living

When dewy catkins suit the willow well:
When golden warm the sunshine glows at

When in the woods the indian mskodeed

When blackbird concerts In the elm tree tops
Foretell the summers carnival of song. l

So will it be when, life's long journey over,
Its storms all braved. its thorny pathways

On the fair city built and kept by God.
And gazing on its radiant spires and turrets,
And listening to the burst of heavenly song
Well smile and say: Eternity is dawning,
And after all, dear heart, life was not long, -

King Tofa,s Atrocities.

St. James Gazette.
News has been received at Lagos from
tn French settlement of Porto Novo. of
some horrible atrocities committed by King
Tofa, the reigning monarch there. A few
days ago prince and his son, whose names
are not yet known here, having been ac-
cused of possessing poisons with which they
intended to kill the king, were seized. and.
by. order of the king, their jaws were
broken and their tongues cut out, and they
afterward hanged. Not very long ago two
boys, sons of another prince. were MUIR
dered in the presence OF their mother and
sister. Both of the latter are stated to be
now in prison.
Previous to this another terrible atroclty
was committed OH two other subjects, a
man and woman The torture went on for
four days, during which time each had an
eye put out, the woman was scalped, and
the man otherwise ill-treated. Their bodies
were afterward cut with knives salt being
put into the wounds. and finally dry grass
was tied round them, and then oiled and
set on fire. 1t is also stated that when the
news of the death of one of Lagos govern
ment commissioners reached King Tofa he
ordered guns to be fired.

repose then they can't expect to get much
after they are married. You leta girl stand
on her feet eight or nine hours day, week in
and week out the year round, and at the end
of twelve months what does she look like?
Her spine invariably gets out of whack.
Her shoulders assume that billowy contour
so peculiar to the back OF cat along about
II o'clock at night when holding consul
tation with others of her ilk. Her chest
becomes eoncavess on one side. and convex
on the other, and wherever she goes she is
accompanied by a deep baritone cough that
shows signs of careful cultivation and per-
sistent training Her chin droops and If
ritates her clavicle almost beyond endur-
ance. This comes OF weakness peculiar
to women that renders it almost impossible

wife from the searching glances OF 2x4
dudes.
My personal investigation has led me to
believe that it is inmical to the health of a
ST. Paul girl for her to stand with her feet
spread out on the floor a great while at a
time, unless the floor is we'll covered with
heavy carpet to keep out the cold, damp air
that is constantly rising from the sub-cellar.
When the average st. Paul girl stands up
there is so much of her spread out on the
ground that she is in great danger of catch
ing cold, and the only way to prevent this is
to take her down to the blacksmith shop and
have her shod with wrought iron or to allow
her to sit On top of three legged stool and
give her chance to hang her feet up on the
rounds.
OF these two methods Of protecting the
health OF the young females of our land l
am much in favor of the latter, as it is a
well known fact that they are unanimously
in favor of matrimony. and when they are
given stools to sit on they are happy, for it
gives them a chance to double up. The
joke may not be apparent, but criticism
should not be too severe on that point, as it
is one thing to be joke and another thing
to be parent.
Our American girls are compelled to
stand up altogether too much. If she were
allowed to sit down more, the business of
manufacturing corn medicine would suffer
from nervous proStration. The most
erudite veterinarians of our time say that
